Manage Contact and Company Custom Fields

Contact fields are needed to be defined before you start using Aritic PinPoint for your marketing team. To add and update custom fields inside Aritic PinPoint, you can find the option under the Settings menu. All the custom fields can be widely segmented under Contact and Company.

All the custom fields have the following properties which can be configured according to your marketing team requirement.

  • Object – This can be either a Contact or a Company.
  • Group – Determines where this field will be displayed when viewing a specific object from the profile view.
  • Data Type – Data type for accepting the values for the contact field
  • Default Value – A default value for the custom field, it will only apply to new contacts. On a custom field, it only applies to new contacts being added, not historical ones.
